In a shocking turn of events, 37 women have come forward with allegations of rape and sexual assault against the late billionaire Muhammad Al-Fayed. At a recent press conference, lawyers representing these women described Al-Fayed as a 'monster' whose predatory behavior was facilitated by his ownership of Harrod's and Fulham FC. Despite investigations that spanned over a decade, Al-Fayed died last year without facing justice. Survivors revealed chilling accounts of sexual exploitation and abuse. They detailed instances of being subjected to intrusive medical examinations without consent, and recounted the atmosphere of fear created by threats from those associated with Al-Fayed. The former head of security at Harrod's was notably accused of intimidating victims. Current owners of Harrod's have expressed their horror at these allegations and established a compensation scheme for former employees who might have been affected. Meanwhile, the BBC has aired a documentary featuring testimonies from over 20 survivors, prompting additional victims to come forward. Fulham FC, where Al-Fayed held ownership from 1997 to 2013, is also re-examining its past, with assurances of support for anyone affected. Investigators now consider the possibility of pursuing charges against those who might have facilitated Al-Fayed's actions. The community continues to call for accountability, highlighting a critical moment in the ongoing fight against sexual abuse in positions of power.
